Is Global Warming Behind Earth's Gravity Shifting?
MichaelH writes "The good folks at JPL along with the Royal Observatory of Belgium have an explanation for the recent changes in Earth's magnetic field: the melting of sub-polar glaciers causing a mass shift towards the equator. Starting in 1997, a noticeable change in Earth's gravitational field was observed; Earth was beginning to develop a 'bulging waistline.' Sounds like it's time for a diet with fewer greenhouse gases...."
Global warming itself is still theory
So is Relativity, or Darwinian evolution. This does not help your argument, you imbecile.
It has some amount of scientific evidence behind it, but some against as well
As does almost any area of study in science, from cold fusion to ESP. But the great majority of evidence is behind it.
until we know for certian that we are the problem, we should assume we are
An analogy: you are trapped in a bank vault with ten other people. You don't know whether the vault is airtight or not. The other ten people think it may well be, on the balance of probability, so decide to conserve air. You, on the other hand, want this to be proved for "certian" before you change your behaviour so you light up a great big cigar.
These people are called extremists or fanatics
I assume this statement means you are a troll - the vast majority of the world's scientists accept that global warming is a serious problem and to a significant extent caused by human activity. Well, you have to laugh...
Wow, that's the exact same answer given by creationists, flat earthers, and cystal lovers when trying to explain why scientists don't believe their pet theories.
I guess that all ideologues really do think the same.
Warning: Some ideologies on the Net are smaller than they appear.
